How in blazes do you keep track of your passwords?

Can I rant briefly about how much I hate having to have a password for every single friggin website now? And they all have different requirements; some don’t allow punctuation, some require special characters, etc. One website just told me I couldn’t use “profane or prohibited words”!

Would anyone care to share some tips for coming up with passwords (business websites versus personal websites, etc.), and most importantly, organizing them and keeping them safe yet accessible in some kind of storage? And if even vaguely answering such a question opens everyone up to the possibility of ID theft, then I am avowedly a clueless tool and I apologize in advance.

I am abstract random-minded, it’s why I’m in the humanities, and my brain doesn’t work well with this kind of thinking, haha.
